SSANU and NASU meanwhile are still protesting Salami’s appointment.
Odewumi said since NASU had challenged the selection of new VC in
court, it was surprised that the OAU governing council violated the rule
of law.
“We will not allow anybody to pronounce himself as VC, until the
determination of the court, for there had been legal tussle on the
position.
” The Non- teaching staff of the University, including Senior Staff
Association of Nigeria Universities (SSANU) and Non-Academic Staff
Union of Universities (NASU) had kicked against the procedure for the
selection.
“That was why workers yesterday embarked on protest against the
choice of Prof. Salami.
” We all say capital No to Prof Salami as new OAU VC, for he was
sponsored to replace Prof. Bamitale Omole “to cover his misdeeds in
office”, he alleged.
Odewumi called on the federal government to order the governing
council to start selection screening afresh.
On his part, the Public Relations Officer of OAU, Mr. Biodun
Olarewaju,urged the aggrieved members of SSANU and NASU to channel
their grievances to appropriate quarters.
Meanwhile, all offices remain under lock and keys till further notice.
